Why did they have to do away with the gravity fill. My 2013 Mountaineer has a vent out the rear that I was thinking about replacing with a gravity fill/vent combo. It was a lot easier to sanitize the tank with the gravity fill.
I totally agree. The "convenience station" isn't so convenient, IMO. I still don't understand why the mfrs simply won't recognize that a significant number of people like to boondock or camp where there may not be hookups. Can you imagine if a single manufacturer offered models in the 25-30' range as a "Boondocker Special", with beefed up suspension, higher clearance, mid-profile, factory-installed solar, =serious= battery capacity and things like gravity-fill water? They couldn't make enough of them!
